Update: Due to the COVID-19 outbreak order shipments are stalled indefinitely. Due to Chinese New Year holidays from Jan 23rd to 31st, no orders will be shipped out during those dates. Surrounding days will also experience delays. Please take this into considering before placing your order.
Threadripper Fully Unleashed With the release of a 64-core Threadripper, AMD is not holding back anything anymore. It’s as close to a full-fledged EPYC processor as you can get on the TRX4 platform, possibly with the exception of RDIMM support. If the product makes sense for consumers or not can be discussed, but for overclockers…
In order to improve current and future products, it would be great to know what your experience has been like with ElmorLabs and its products so far. It’s relatively short and shouldn’t take more than a minute or two to complete. Much obliged! https://www.surveymonkey.com/r/GH7C5TG
With Intel’s 10 nm products not yet being ready for the desktop market, they’ve had to get creative with their product releases. In a third processor update for the X299 platform they present us with Cascade Lake-X. It arrives with promises of increased performance through frequency bumps, courtesy of another advancement in 14 nm process technology.
After releasing Zen 2 for mainstream desktop as Ryzen 3000 and for server as EPYC 7002, AMD is following up with a 7 nm update to the Threadripper platform. While desktop users are mostly concerned with performance over power, improvements to energy efficiency usually allows for higher overall performance. The release of second generation Threadripper processors in 2018 increased the peak core count from 16 to 32 resulting in escalated power consumption. This article takes a look at how Zen 2’s improved energy efficiency translates to raw performance for high-end desktops.
Since it was first discovered the latest product line of AMD mainstream desktop processors would be configured with up to two CCD (Core Complex Dies) there has been anticipation for a 16-core model. With the release of the AMD Ryzen 9 3950X, the highest available core count in this segment has doubled in the past…
Many like to tinker with their motherboard load-line settings to achieve better overclocking results. But how does this setting really work and how does the voltage output change with it? Check below to find out. What is Load-Line? The load-line setting, normally in mΩ (milliohms), determines how much the output voltage decreases when loaded. This…
This is an investigation of AMD Ryzen 3000 with the aim to highlight changes to memory and fabric behavior on Zen 2 (Matisse). As you’ve probably seen, Ryzen 3000 is capable of much higher memory speeds than previous generations. The main reason for this is added circuitry on-chip that allows running the memory clock (MCLK)…
The EVC2 is soon ready for release and should be available in mid-June. It’s estimated to cost 35 USD without the OLED display which will be a 5 USD add-on. Quick specs 3x I2C headers working at 3.3-5.0V 1x UART header, TX 3.3V RX 3.3-5.0V 1x SPI header with on-board supply (0.8-3.6V) VMOD header for…
Many have contacted me asking when planned products will be available. Progress has been slow but fear not, things are moving forward! In order to improve communication I’ve created a product mailing list through Mailchip (below). Don’t delay, subscribe today!
